On afternoon conference call, Obama and Michigan Democratic officials say they're seeking an injunction to block alleged "caging" by the state GOP -- using home foreclosure lists to seek to block residents from voting.

Obama counsel Bob Bauer: "It is an absolute attack on their right to vote" and a "completely false and completely illegal basis" to challenge votes.

"This is a standard operating procedure within the Republican party that's been under legal challenge."

The Macomb party chair denies the comments attributed to him.
